This is such a crock of $hit. Last year, Gitmo prisoners gained an average of 10 pounds. They have 3 squares and a warm place to sleep and $hit. Yup, torture alright.
What? No CNN?
These-called abuses in this cae don't amount to torture to me. As for the Generals who have lined up against Rumsfeld...Aren't they the same kiss a$$es who sucked up to Clinton when he was ignoring the military and didn't want to hear from the real warriors?
